As the presenter of ABC News Radio's Word Watch program, Kel Richards has his finger on the pulse, tracking the words and phrases that generally go unnoticed as they slip from the mouths of Australians. What does it mean when someone calls you "agonic"? In computer talk, what is a "banana problem"? Where does the expression "Bob's your uncle" come from?
Kel Richards' 'Word Watch' answers these questions and many more; a must have for any word buff and a wonderful gift for the language pedant in all of us. Ranging from the baffling language of the internet to "the full monty", Word Watch gives entertaining, enlightening and up-to-date explanations for about 400 carefully chosen words.
